Post-Withdrawal Disbursement

If the student has accepted his/her federal aid and it has not disbursed, the reason for the non-disbursal will be ascertained. If any of the following conditions have been met below the aid will be included in the “Aid that Could Have Disbursed” section of the calculation to determine if a post-withdrawal disbursement is due:

  1. Federal Pell Grant - ISIR received date with an “official” SAI preceding the withdrawal date and student meets all other eligibility criteria.
  2. FSEOG - Aid was awarded prior to withdrawal date.
  3. Direct Plus, Subsidized, and Unsubsidized Loans - Loan had originated prior to withdrawal date and Master Promissory Note was signed prior to R2T4 calculation date.

If the post-withdrawal disbursement calculation indicates that a post-withdrawal disbursement is due from grant funds and the student has outstanding institutional charges, the funds are automatically applied to the student’s billing account. If the calculation indicates that a post-withdrawal disbursement is due from loan funds or grant funds remain available after being applied to outstanding institutional charges, the student/parent is sent a letter notifying him/her of the amount available. The student/parent is asked to return the letter within 14 days indicating whether he/she wishes to receive the aid and if so, the amount.

A school may not make a post-withdrawal disbursement to the account or estate of a student who has died. Also a student's estate is not required to return any Title IV funds.
